Anthropogenic impacts have shifted aquatic ecosystems far from prehistoric baseline states;
yet, understanding these impacts is impeded by a lack of available long-term data that …

A large number of species and taxa have been studied for genetic polymorphism.
Microsatellites have been known as hypervariable neutral molecular markers with the …

The effect of habitat fragmentation on freshwater species has been addressed using brown
trout Salmo trutta L. as a model species with a dendritic population structure. 2. Microsatellite …

Population structure can significantly affect genetic‐based demographic inferences,
generating spurious bottleneck‐like signals. Previous studies have typically assumed island …

Effective management of aquatic fauna requires knowledge of the ways in which
populations in different catchments and sub‐catchments are connected. A powerful way to …

Freshwater fish are a highly threatened group and recovery of these threatened species is
an increasingly difficult ecological and social challenge. There are many different on-ground …

Fish stocking is commonly used in developed countries and aims to improve recreational
fish stocks and rebuild threatened species populations. Fish stocking is often contentious …

Internationally, re-introductions of endangered species into their former ranges have largely
failed. Here we assess a successful reintroduction program of the endangered trout cod …

Understanding the evolutionary processes underlying range‐wide genomic variation is
critical to designing effective conservation and restoration strategies. Evaluating the …

Effective population size (Ne) is a measure of the genetic size of a population and a crucial
parameter for wildlife population management since it is strongly related to retention of …
